In this study, 20 taxonomic ranks were diagnosed, and Deuteromycota outperformed all the isolates, as it recorded nine taxonomic ranks, including five of them belonging to the genus Aspergillus and four of them to the genus Penicillium, followed by Ascomycota, which displayed five taxonomic ranks, two ranks belong to the genus Alternaria and three to the genus Alternaria. Species belonged to different races, while the vaccinated fungi, Zygomycota exhibited three taxonomic ranks, two of them belong to the genus Mucor and one to the genus Rhizopus, while the oval fungi, Oomycota displayed two species belonging to the genus Pythium, while the sterile fungi, Sterill mycilia revealed the lowest numerical level among the rest of the studied fungi.
